Two Southampton fans were spoken to by police and face bans from the club after they were filmed mocking Cardiff City supporters by making plane gestures in reference to the crash involving Emiliano Sala.

The fans were seen making the sick gestures with outstretched arms at visiting supporters during Saturday’s Premier League game at St. Mary’s, which Cardiff won 2-1.

The body of Argentinian striker Sala, 28, was identified after being recovered from plane wreckage in the English Channel earlier in the week.

Sala had joined Cardiff as the club’s record signing just days before the plane he was traveling on went missing on January 21 while traveling back from France to Wales along with pilot Dave Ibbotson, whose body has yet to be found.

Saturday’s game saw a minute’s silence in tribute to Sala, while afterwards Neil Warnock dedicated his team’s injury-time victory to the striker, saying: “We wanted to do it for Emiliano and I’m really proud the lads have done him justice.”
